The contribution of the receptor/ligand pair during an acute infection is less understood. To determine the role of PD-L1 and PD-L2 during acute ocular herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, HSV-1-infected mice administered neutralizing antibody to PD-L1 or PD-L2 were assessed for viral burden and host cellular immune responses. Virus titers were elevated in cornea and trigeminal ganglia (TG) of anti-PD-L1-treated mice which corresponded with a reduced number of CD80-expressing dendritic cells, PD-L1+树突细胞和HSV-1特异性CD8+排水(下颌)淋巴结(MLN)内的T细胞。相比之下,抗PD-L2处理对病毒复制或MLN群体的变化没有影响。值得注意的是,来自抗PD-L1处理的小鼠的CD11C富含MLN细胞的分析显示出功能性损害。这些研究表明,在急性HSV-1感染期间,表达PD-L1表达的树突状细胞对于抗病毒防御是重要的。SN - 2314-8861 UR - https://doi.org/10.1155/2012/924619 Do - 10.1155 / 2012/924619 JF - 临床和发育免疫学PB - Hindwi Publishing Corporation KW - ER -
